Hurricane Hysteria, August 25, 2011
[dcs_p]Angie and Stella are in a panic because of Hurricane Irene, but now it looks as though the storm is moving north, northeast of us. Too bad for the Bahamas–they’re getting blasted today. And too bad for Angie, who plans to host a ladies luncheon on our terrace tomorrow. I already told her, “Baby, move it inside,” but she has some kind of tropical theme planned and has her heart set on outdoor dining and an Atlantic view.[/dcs_p]Hoping to be as far away from the house as possible tomorrow, I was intending to take the Stella di Mare south, but they’re forecasting heavy showers and swells and I don’t think I’m taking the Stella anywhere. It’s already raining today, and tomorrow will be more of the same. But it’s late summer in south Florida and hurricane or no hurricane, it rains.
